STG Insuring Interest of Incoming Partner Endorsement Guideline 1

Explanation:

The endorsement is to be used when providing coverage to a person or entity that is acquiring an interest as a general partner in a general partnership. This endorsement limits liability for loss to the percentage interest of the incoming partner in the partnership.

Underwriting Requirements:

(1) Coverage in favor of the new partner may only be given when the partnership agreement and other documentation, if any, provide for the addition of new partners and the addition will not cause a dissolution of the partnership.
(2) The endorsement does not increase coverage but limits the payment of loss. The issuing of the endorsement is a condition to the issuance of the policy.
(3) This endorsement may not be issued without the approval of a Senior Underwriter.
